Tips:
- Use fresh crab meat for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have fresh crab meat, you can use frozen or canned crab meat instead. Just be sure to thaw it completely before using.
- You can use any type of bread crumbs you like in this recipe. I prefer to use Panko bread crumbs because they give the crab balls a nice crispy coating.
- Be careful not to overmix the crab balls. Overmixing will make them tough.
- Fry the crab balls in hot oil until they are golden brown and cooked through. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Serve the crab balls with your favorite dipping sauce. I like to serve them with a tartar sauce or a remoulade sauce.
